Daughters of Hawai‘i
Presenter: Patricia Morgan, Former Regent, Daughters of Hawai‘i
Founded in 1903, the Daughters of Hawaii sought “to perpetuate the memory and spirit of old Hawai‘i and of historic facts, and to preserve the nomenclature and correct pronunciation of the Hawaiian language.” Through their efforts Hanaiakamalama, Hulihe‘e Palace and the birthplace site of Kauikeaouli, Kamehameha III, have been protected. The seven founders comprised Emma L. Dillingham, Sarah Colin Waters, Lucinda Severance, Ellen A. Weaver, Mrs. Annie A. Dickey, Cornelia H. Jones and Anna M. Paris.
The 2024 Series explores six historic preservation pioneers in Hawai‘i describing their passions, visions, work and impact.
The series, curated by Dr. Ralph T. Kam, executive director of Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives, is sponsored by the Historic Preservation Graduate Certificate Program, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa’s School of Architecture and Historic Hawai‘i Foundation.
